*Professorship (W3) in Geology*


The candidate must have demonstrated expertise in surficial geology,
involving the coupling between the atmosphere, oceans and the lithosphere.

The successful candidate will actively contribute to the Bachelor and
Master of Geosciences programs, particularly in the areas of
surficial/regional geology and geochemistry. Field-based courses form an
important component of the teaching duties. Courses can be held in English,
particularly those offered at an advanced-level.

The candidate should have international research experience and a proven
ability to obtain external research funding, as demonstrated through
publication of previous research activities. He/she possesses skills in
didactics and personnel management and will become involved in the
university administration. It is expected that the candidate will
contribute to further developing the scientific profile of the Institute,
as well as expanding national and international collaborations. The
application must include a concept of how the candidate will establish an
internationally visible profile and how her/his research complements the
existing strengths within the Faculty of Geosciences/Geography and other
research institutions in the Rhine-Main region.

university scale or equivalent. For further information regarding the
